Do's and Dont's of Ceramic Tile Grout Care
Do use neutral cleaner for periodic and regular maintenance of your tile
and grout.
Don't use vinegar and water for cleaning tile. Vinegar is acidic and will damage grout and bleach its color.
Don't use muriatic acid or other acidic cleaners- it is dangerous to people, pets, tile and grout.
Don't use bleach on a tile application. It is acidic, corrosive and toxic and has the same effect on tile and grout as vinegar.
Don't clean the surface of tile with abrasive cleaning powders. They will scratch the tile and wear down glazed and unglazed surfaces prematurely.
Ceramic/Porcelain Tiles - One of the greatest aspects about ceramic tile is that it is a true low maintenance material. Minimal effort will keep it looking great for years to come. Most tile applications, will require only a periodic cleaning with neutral cleaner to remove dirt and soil buildup. DO NOT USE A DISH DETERGENT; it will leave a soapy residue and cause dullness.
Remember........
If your grout has been sealed with our unique color restoration sealer, regular cleaning with a neutral cleaner and an annual Maintenance Cleaning will keep your floor looking it's best for many years to come and keep the lifetime warranty in tact.
